### Summary
The narrative is currently focused on a controversial flashback to one of Julian's past lives, in which he becomes engaged to a 14-year-old Leah in a desperate attempt to subvert her fated death at age 17. This storyline has deeply divided the audience, with many readers expressing significant discomfort and labeling Julian's actions as "grooming," a view intensified by an art style that portrays Leah as particularly young. In contrast, other readers defend Julian, citing his psychological torment from reliving her death over 500 times, the historical context of noble betrothals, and the platonic nature of their interactions in this timeline. As this unsettling arc reaches its climax, comments suggest Leah's death is once again imminent, this time at the hands of an "unknown assailant." The impending tragedy has fueled reader theories, with speculation that Leah's recurring demise is intrinsically linked to her proximity to Julian or that the very act of marrying him is the trigger for her death. Overall, the readership is experiencing a mix of frustration over the characters' endless suffering and a strong desire to move past this morally ambiguous and uncomfortable part of their history.
